NEW! ALL DAY ADVANCED COMMERCIAL Intensive with David McDermott, Commercial Agent, Jordan, Gill and Dornbaum

Saturday, January 16, 2016, 10am ET / 7am PT

This event is in the past.

5pm. Our new all day advanced commercial intensive is the perfect way to get yourself BOOKING more on-camera commercials. Packed with individual camera time and useful information, David will specifically focus on how to increase your chances of getting a callback at commercial auditions, by helping you to make bold choices and locking in your point of view.

You'll also learn tricks of the trade, common mistakes and how to fix them, what agents look for, what really goes on at a call-back and he'll answer any questions you might have. Have you ever wondered why you're not booking more commercials or even just getting a call-back? What are you doing that is holding back your true potential? Learn how to book by doing it "wrong". Stop worrying about auditioning the "right" way and learn by doing it the "wrong" way. David is here to help you find out just that and fix the individual issues that are stopping you from booking more jobs!

For today's intensive, David requests that you bring in a piece of current commercial copy (check out ISpot.tv for choices) that you feel you would be cast in.

From taking this all day intensive, you'll learn how to get the most out of presenting yourself in front of agents and casting directors!

"David had a great attitude for helping us relax and do good work. He patiently answered all of our questions, gave helpful feedback, and made sure we all had plenty of on-camera practice. Most admirably, he was never in a rush to end the class if he felt there were more things he could help us out with. As an added bonus, he brought in Rebecca Yarsin from House on our final day of class, which was great for networking purposes. I've been staying in touch with him and will let you know if he sends me out on anything. Thanks for making the class happen!" -David Marx

"David sent me to a commercial AUDITION at House Casting after taking his 3 Week On-Camera Commercial Class at Actors Connection! His class was amazing!" -Jeannine Green

"I had two commercial AUDITIONS from meeting and working with David in his 3 Week On-Camera Commercial Class at Actors Connection!" -Steph Garcia
